Hi - again a configuration question.

How can I suppress all email notifications? The "Suppress default = 2" flag 
allows me to always produce a notification, but the flag does not provide 
an option to never produce a notification. The flag "Suppress Email on 
edit" does help a bit, but still notifications for new messages will be 
sent.

I'm looking forward to your fast response... So far your support is 
fantastic!

It is not clear to me how "Format <attribute> = " works.  At first I thought
it would allow me to rearrange how attributes are organized on the html
"page"  using 
# <flags> Sum of following flags:

    * 1: Display attribute in same line as previous attribute
    * 2: Display radio buttons or check boxes in separate lines (if applicable) 

but this does not result in any behavior that I can see.  I must admit that
I am not sure what "Values used for single message display page:" means.

My goal is to provide a more compact page, taking small attributes and
running them across the page rather than straight down.

Thanks

I've run into a situation where the SUMMARY view of a logbook will extend
beyond the righthand border, thus requiring the user to scroll right.  This
does not occur in FULL or THREAD mode.  Long lines in the TEXT attribute
appear to be "pushing" the display too far to the right.  Limiting the
number of displayed summary lines works unless the first line is too long.

A temporary fix for this is to set summary lines = 0

Hi 
I followed copied the example config provide to run on my server .
Apparently , the author field was blank when i do a reply .
I was hoping to get it to be the actual reply author.
Just like the way the forum is done up.

Are you using Remove on reply option ?

This (new) behaviour came from the request that some people id *NOT* want to
have the new author on the reply, but the *ORIGINAL* (they used an attribute
"Origial author" which should not be replaced on a reply). Therefor I added a
new option to resolve that. So please use

Preset Author = $long_name
Preset on reply Author = $long_name

if you want to have the attribut "Author" replaced by the current one both on
new entries and on replies.

I am working on a logbook for a lab.  I have two questions...
First - Some of the logbook entries should not be viewed by certain users.  
What would be the easiest way to restrict viewing some entries?  

Second - I have a welcome page for the ELOG that lists some info about the 
ELOG.  When I start the ELOG, the user sees the login page.  After the user 
logs in, the welcome page appears listing the restrictions.  Right now, I 
have a hyperlink that takes the user to new, find, etc.  But I would like 
to take the user right to the logbook and not have to come back to the 
welcome page everytime.  How can I do this?

I have attached the code I have so far.  They are in .txt format for easier 
viewing.

Thanks!

The help text on the website says the following:

"The command Select can be used to select multiple messages for deletion of
moving to other logbooks."

This is not clear but was the intent to indicate that SELECT can be used to
either select multiple log entries for deletion OR for moving to another
logbook?  If the latter, then this does not work if one adds the MOVE TO
menu item to the list.  If the former then the helptext is a little misleading.

Thanks!

I'm not sure if this is a configuration problem or a bug, but running
v2.5.4subver1.413, elogd runs as user ROOT (UID0) even though the following
is in the elogd.cfd file:

Usr = nobody
Grp = essadm

All other directives added to the cfg file work, so I know eLog is reading
the cfg file.  

The elogd binary *is not* setuid 0.

Thanks
